A specific instance (like BeeHaw) can defederate other instances. It's basically like blocking that instance so users on BeeHaw can't interact with that instance.

So for example if BeeHaw defederated Lenny.World, BeeHaw users won't be able to see communities from Lemmy.World?

What about if Lemmy.World users comment on Lemmy.ml posts, can BeeHaw users see Lemmy.World user's comments?
